Review: Prosciutto-Wrapped Chicken w/Lemon Basil RiceGreat recipe! We loved it. Both the chicken and the rice are keepers. (This is in Volume II of 29 Minutes to Dinner)

Chicken:
- I was a little leery of the sun-dried tomato flavor because DH isn't a fan. The overall flavor combination though, was delicious.
- Look for thin chicken breasts. I started out with some thicks ones and after pounding, they were still a little too big. This makes it difficult to get a tight roll...so some of the cheese melted out of ours.
-Proscuitto and fresh mozzerella aren't cheap, but the flavor whallop is worth it.

Rice:
- The lemon-basil flavor is AMAZING! I'm not a big white rice fan, but this had my taste buds dancing.
- The rice cooker makes this easy, easy, easy.

Thanks for the review - this is one that I thought sounded good...I'll have to try it now!
 
I have a recipe that is very similar to this - the chicken part, not the rice. My recipe uses fontina cheese and the prosciutto is inside the chicken. Love it! I haven't made this one yet, but I'm sure it's good too. Thanks for the review.
 
Thanks...Will be trying this one as well!
 

Hi there!Thank you for your review of the Prosciutto-Wrapped Chicken with Lemon Basil Rice recipe. I am so glad to hear that you and your family loved it! This is definitely one of my personal favorites from Volume II of 29 Minutes to Dinner.I completely understand your concern about the sun-dried tomato flavor, as not everyone is a fan. However, I am happy to hear that the overall flavor combination was still delicious for you. And thank you for the tip about using thin chicken breasts for easier rolling and to prevent the cheese from melting out.I agree that prosciutto and fresh mozzarella can be a bit pricey, but the flavor payoff is definitely worth it. And I am thrilled that you enjoyed the lemon-basil rice as well! Using a rice cooker definitely makes it a breeze to prepare.Thank you again for your review and for trying out this recipe. Happy cooking!
